By Mysterious Galaxy Bookstore
SOFÍA LAPUENTE is an author, screenwriter, and avid world traveler who immigrated from Spain to the United States to realize her dream of storytelling. Since then, she has received a master’s degree in fine arts at UCLA, worked as a producer and casting director on an Emmy nominated show, and received coauthor credits in GLEANINGS, the fourth installment of the bestselling Arc of a Scythe series, with her partner, Jarrod Shusterman. Together, the couple writes and produces film and television under their production company Dos Lobos Entertainment.
JARROD SHUSTERMAN is the NEW YORK TIMES bestselling coauthor of novel DRY, which he is adapting for a major Hollywood film studio with Neal Shusterman. He is also the coauthor of the accoladed novel ROXY. His books have all received critical acclaim and multiple starred reviews. Sofí Lapuente and Jarrod are partners in every sense of the word, with love and multiculturalism as an ethos—living between Madrid, Spain, and Los Angeles, California. If they are not working, it means they’re eating. For behind-the-scenes author content and stupidly funny videos, follow them on Instagram and TikTok @SofiandJarrod.
GINA CHEN tells stories about fantastic worlds featuring heroines, antiheroines, and the kind of cleverness that brings trouble in its wake. A self-taught artist with a degree in computer science, she generates creative nonsense in all forms of media and always has a project stewing. VIOLET MADE OF THORNS is her debut fantasy novel.

Local to San Diego, Adalyn spends her non-writing days by watching too much anime, and by playing video games with her dorky dog.
